“Celebrate the students.”  That’s the motto by which administrators at Taylorville High School are looking to lead as the spring semester begins.  They are touting the variety of opportunities available to students, from TommyTV to trades-related courses.

The school is in its early stages of putting its new indoor athletic facility on the east side of the campus.  Principal Matt Hutchison says one of the most notable benefits is that it offers more space for sports teams to practice so they can do so at more reasonable hours.

Hutchinson speaks highly of the athletic programs themselves, as well.  He adds that his school’s organization of sporting events has received notable commendation. 

The school boasts a number of non-core academic programs.  They are designed to bring academics to a “classroom” which does not look like a conventional one.
